Schweiger Also Boards Tarantino’s Bastards

The Hollywood Reporter says that German star Til Schweiger (King Arthur, Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life) has also landed a role in Quentin Tarantino’s World War II movie Inglorious Bastards.

The Universal/Weinstein Co. feature revolves around a French girl’s revenge on the Nazis and also follows a band of American Nazi killers. Both story lines eventually converge.

Diane Kruger will portray the part of a glamorous German actress who ends up helping the Nazi hunters infiltrate a movie premiere.

Schweiger will play a member of the Nazi killer team, headed by Brad Pitt’s character, Lt. Aldo Raine.
